A glimmer of sunshine passed my way
A piece of history marking the day
A mille-second of perfect fleeting joy
A lyrical note of cosmic rays
A sound of nature grabbed my ear
A foxes yelp against the moon
A canine echo of prehistoric time
A spooky reminder of natures rhyme
A touch of nettle burned my skin
A subtle reminder of nature’s sting
A Hawthorne bush and simple barb
A painful reminder of nature’s spite
A concrete edifice to man’s desire
An ugly monster rises to the stars
A grim reminder of capitalist greed
An apocalypse beckoned by human need
